Although they may have had permission from Basic Books it would have been professional to credit them for initial publication of the work, and the fact this was presented as an &quot;original research&quot; article is simply wrong. <br /><br />I&#39;m glad the Neurocritic caught this and look forward to seeing a corrected manuscript online ASAP.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21605329.post-52813368245319349792013-10-23T10:30:01.498-07:002013-10-23T10:30:01.498-07:00Yep, we hope to take care of this along the lines ...Yep, we hope to take care of this along the lines you&#39;ve suggested (waiting to hear back from Frontiers in terms of how they wish to acknowledge the excerpt).

We’re more than happy to clear up the confusion. Neurocritic is quite right that the Frontiers article should have included an explicit mention that it was drawn primarily (with a few additions) from the addiction chapter in our recent book Brainwashed: The Seductive Appeal of Mindless Neuroscience. <br /><br />A tad bit of “history” regarding this article is in order. Several months ago, Frontiers approached Sally Satel (not the other way around), to solicit an article submission. She offered the text of a chapter on addiction from Brainwashed, to be published later in the Spring, and explicitly informed the Frontiers editor that the text would first be appearing our book. The Frontiers editor and the peer reviewers were fully aware of the paper’s status as a slightly modified chapter in the book. <br /><br />When excerpts of our book have appeared in print, as in Bloomberg News (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-06-02/brain-science-not-ready-to-replace-mad-men.html) and the most recent issue of Skeptical Inquirer magazine (apparently not yet available online), they have been accompanied by an explicit acknowledgement that the article was adapted (or drawn directly) from our Brainwashed book. In the case of the Frontiers article, we erroneously assumed that such an acknowledgement was included, but it was not. We (and/or Frontiers) will be certain to correct this omission ASAP. <br /><br />In the future, if similar (or other) questions arise regarding our Brainwashed book, please feel free to contact the authors directly at slsatel@gmail or slilien@emory.edu. <br /><br />All the best…Sally Satel and Scott Lilienfeld.Scott Lilienfeldnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21605329.post-77830123655611467872013-10-23T06:54:38.179-07:002013-10-23T06:54:38.179-07:00This is weird.

The incentive is clear: Why reduce your output when reusing &amp; recycling is better for your CV? Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
